"Seule notre foi individuelle en la liberté peut nous maintenir libres"
— Dwight D. Eisenhower
Simplified Meaning:
Freedom depends on each person's belief in it. If people don't value their own freedom, it can easily be taken away. Imagine a classroom where the teacher asks for volunteers to help clean up. If everyone believes in contributing and helping out, the class stays clean and organized. But if students don’t care and think it’s not their job, the classroom becomes messy. Over time, the teacher might stop asking and start assigning chores without asking. The initial choice to help and believe in the shared responsibility keeps the class free and comfortable. Similarly, our freedom in society works the same way: everyone’s belief and effort in protecting it keeps everyone free.
